    He won't, not TT at all.

    Honestly, I despise the thought, but AP should call the Patriots and get as much as they're willing and take it to go get a ring. Whether that is league minimum or 3 mill or 5 mill or 9 mill....whatever they'll offer take it.

    I was pretty upset when they let Cook visit other teams. Bennett makes up for it!

    Brought Davon House back.

    So far weve signed Perry, House, Schum, Bennett and Kendricks.

    Weve lost Lacy, Lang & Jones.

    And lost Peppers as well.

    Lang is the most measurably difficult one to replace, however I knew he wouldn't be back either. None of the departures have surprised me actually but the Lacy one shocked me the most out of the mix of em.

    My only things remaining on what would be my to do list is:

    RB - Sign Christine Michael back and either draft a RB (deep class) or keep eye out for a solid FA still out there.
    CB - Minimum drafting someone in first 4 rounds (prefer 1st or 2nd depending on how unfolds)
    OLB - Gotta think to future and Clay is playing about 5 Million under his contract and is on his way to being done...Vet FA would be nice but doubt we do it...so gotta draft pieces.
    OL - While I'm fine with rolling with what we got and drafting some more, an experience vet FA similar to the Saturday signing a few years back wouldn't be a terrible thing if price is right.

    Eddy reportedly weighed 267 at one of his visits, due to the fact he was fined for being fat before by the Packers he was not going to be resigned at that weight. He ate his way out of Green Bay.

    So far this offseason has been "meh" for me. Losing Lang really does suck, but he had a rough injury and will be 30. I can understand why TT did what he did. I wouldnt be opposed to drafting a guard high for replace him. Un sexy picks usually work out better anyways.

    As far as the RB situation, i do think we need to either draft a bruiser or sign a street FA. Peterson or Blount would be a great, cheap 1st and 2nd down back. Bring in Ripkowski on 3rd down for blocking and use Monty as a flex type guy (like Darren Sproles).

    We still need to fix our defense. We need an EDGE, another pass rusher and a CB. I do think Rollins/Randall will make good 3rd year leaps, but another veteran to pair with House early will make a big difference. The way they are shopping Sherman/Butler interests me alot.

    I think his agent wanted top free agent money.

    I also think an elite QB made him look better than he really is.

    I believe the Packers upgraded for the same price Jared wanted.
